Resource Situation

This Project Document has been revised (see below) WFP’s vision in Myanmar is:

To contribute to more equitable development across the country and support national reconciliation efforts, by reducing poverty, food insecurity and undernutrition and increasing resilience amongst the most vulnerable communities

WFP began a new three-year operation in January 2013, which will target around 1.6 million beneficiaries with over 175,000 tons of food, at a total cost of US$ 167 million.

WFP’s long-term goal is to ensure that targeted communities are food secure by implementing sustainable programmes, and then by progressively increasing the degree of national and local ownership in order for the Government and communities to take over these programmes.

WFP implements five activities under PRRO 200299:

1. Relief assistance for victims of conflict and natural disasters

2. Nutrition support to treat and prevent acute malnutrition in children under 5 and pregnant and lactating women (PLW):

a. Treat moderate acute malnutrition in children 6-59 months

b. Prevent acute malnutrition in children 6-23 months and PLW

c. Prevent stunting through food assistance to children 6-23 months and PLW
